Rollong Stones
Today July 12, 2012 half century since the Rolling Stones will go up on stage for the first time. At that time. Mick Jagger and his were only a beardless boys with just a few versions in your playlist.
Today, half a century later, we are facing one of the most important rock bands in the history of music and before one of the most daunting repertoires of the current scene.
We repetidísimos away from Matías Prats type of "their Satanic Majesties" and eternal (and boring and false) duality belligerent Beatles / Stones, is mandatory rigor and review the career of the band in London from time to time clichés. Thus further we move away a little and so much modernez ahead and enjoyed for a while seminal rock music. Basically, whence all.
Rolling Stones, hard rock, Rock, Mick Jagger, metal, Paint It Black, Keith Richards, Sympathy For The Devil, Ronnie Wood, Keith Richards,
It is true that the Rolling Stones have long does a masterpiece and, except 'Voodoo Lounge' (1994), have done almost nothing remarkable for more than 30 years ( 'Some Girls' 1978 does is his latest album legend). But it is no less true that the concerts of the band are still pieces of worship and that no matter what happens, nobody wants to hear the news that Mick Jagger, Ron Wood, Charlie Watts and Keith Richards retire.

The Rolling Stones rock embody the attitude from the beginning, including all the stereotypes of sex, alcohol, drugs and money. And if all are prophets and apostles excess of the star system, Keith Richards is the true holy spirit, we do not know what is done, but certainly not meat.
We could write a book, but we prefer, since its 50th anniversary, let them 50 stories of their Satanic Majesties (hala, and what I had to say):
1. It´s name comes from "Rolling Stone", a song by Muddy Waters. Muddy Waters took the expression of an old Latin proverb that "Rolling stones do not catch moss".
2. The first concert gave the 12 July 1962 at the legendary Marquee Club in Oxford Street.
3. Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were cronies of childhood but separated. Then they met again in 1960 in a train station and there began almost everything.
4. Of the four Rolling Stones Current: Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood, only the first two are founding members.
5. The real architect of the existence of the band seems to have been Brian Jones, ahead of his time. His death in 1969, in addition to include him in the 27 Club, deprived us of a musical genius and a true trend-settler.
6. Their numbers are irrefutable: 29 studio albums, 30 compilation albums, 12 live albums and 107 singles.
7. The "biggest band rock'n'roll history" is autodenominaron, and there was a time when they were. There's that.
8. 'Satisfaction', in 1965, was his first hit worldwide and gave them their first number one in the United States. Since then they did not stop to succeed across the ocean.
9. Less is more: the riff of 'Satisfaction' is one of the simplest pieces of guitar history. It is probably also the most famous of all riff.
10. The logo of the band, the lips and tongue, is a pop icon and no doubt, the most famous design music history.
11. The logo was designed by designer Ernie Cefalu in 1971 inspired by the Jagger pout, but was finally drawn by John Pasche and was first included in the album 'Sticky Fingers'.
12. In Spain the Rolling Stones suffered censorship. The cover of 'Sticky Fingers' by Andy Warhol, which showed a sensual package in jeans, was replaced by fingers out of a can.
13. Despite not getting into politics, while sympathetic to Obama and Republicans clashed openly, dedicating his song 'Sweet Neo Con'.
14. Keith Richards said he had snorted his father's ashes. The problem is not that it was true or not, the problem is that no one doubted it.
15. Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards were hand in glove during the 60. Wood said that at that time was very easy to get along with wearing your same hairstyle.
16. The Rolling Stones are avowed fans of flamenco. Among its myths is Camarón, who tried to hire for private parties without success.
17. There is probably in the history of rock a womanizer Mick Jagger type. If half the rumors about him are true, he would have slept among many thousands, with Madonna, Carla Bruni, Tina Turner, Milla Jovovich, Uma Thurman or Brigitte Bardot.
18. Despite his womanizing, Jagger also suffered ruptures. Marianne Faithful feature heartbroken and could never overcome.
19. Mick Jagger is also in the select group of open "ambiguity of the 70" and attributed several relationships with other men, the most talked with David Bowie, with whom he was allegedly caught red-handed by Angie Bowie, by then his wife.
20. A curious story happened to Carlo Little, a drummer who played with the Rolling Stones in their early and decided to leave after a few bowls because "that is not going anywhere." Fate was selling hamburgers made in 1999 in Wembley concert of his former colleagues. Mick Jagger learned and invited him to her birthday party.
21. Keith Richards should be the subject of scientific study because nobody understands that remain alive after the life he has led. The same scientist should address the autopsy Iggy Pop, too.
22. In 1966 published 'Aftermath', which is considered one of the best albums in the history of music.
23. Many of his songs have lyrics blurred legend. 'Angie', for example, a song of heartbreak, has several explanations: from an ode to heroin Keith Richards, to the pain Jagger Marianne Faithful, through a dedication to Angela, Bowie's wife. Nobody agrees.
24. His first number one in the UK was 'It's All Over Now', 1963, a song that was not made by them but by Womack & Womack.
25. Interestingly, her first British number one was ruthlessly killed by 'A Hard Day's Night' by the Beatles, a week later.
26. 'Paint It Black', one of his most famous songs of the group, is inevitably associated with the Vietnam War, after Kubrick's masterfully used in 'Full Metal Jacket'.
27. Interestingly, the last single that got number one in the UK was in 1969 with 'Honky Tonk Women'. Since then they have not set foot in the British top.
28. The relationship between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards is one of those exceedingly great stories of love / hate. The two claim not supported, but they are always there next to each other.
29. They say that Keith Richards and Johnny Depp tried to convince Mick Jagger by all means to participate with them in 'Pirates of the Caribbean'. They failed.
30. Ron Wood might seem an amateur next to Mick Jagger, but his history of womanizing is top division. His flight a few years ago with a Russian waitress cost 18 million dollars of divorce.
31. 'Sympathy For The Devil' began as a folk ballad. Eventually and after some changes, it became an almost satanic rock anthem.
32. The war between the Beatles and Rolling Stones is false. They got along quite well and actually promoted among them. There was no any disagreement, apart from competing in record stores.
33. Mick Jagger took the bride to Bryan Ferry antlered included. That's no joke.
34. Charlie Watts is the most discreet of the Rolling Stones. He overcame his drug problems long ago and lives with his wife, with whom he has been married for 47 years in a house in the English countryside.
35. They say Mick Jagger, drunk, called it a night the good of Charlie Watts and asked, "Where is my battery?". He got up, straightened, he came where he was Jagger and got a punch ". Do not ever call me your battery You are my fucking singer." Few jokes with Mr. Watts.
36. Keith Richards fell out of a coconut tree in Fiji in 65 years and had to cancel a few shows. The problem was, once again, that no one was surprised.
37. His visits to prison have been pretty high-profile. Keith Richards has a history of possession of hallucinatory drugs, and Mick Jagger, other than on merit, not stop entering the barracks to defend his friend.
38. Pioneers were recording 'Rock And Roll Circus' in 1968. They played with Lennon, The Who, Jethro Tull, Eric Clapton and Marianne Faithfull. The Rolling Stones did not permit publication until 1996, probably because it was one of the best performances of The Who and one of the worst of them.
39. There was a supergroup between members of Rolling Stones and Beatles, called The Dirty Mac and played only in 'Rock And Roll Circus'. It was composed Lennon, Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, Mitch Mitchell (The Jimi Hendrix Experience) and Yoko Ono.
40. In 2008, 40 years after 'Rock And Roll Circus', repeated experience with 'Shine A Light', directed no more and no less than Scorsese.
41. There is also a part of black history and legend damn. In 1969, while performing at a festival in Altmont, California, a young man, Meredith Hunter, was killed by security officers who were none other than the Hell's Angels. Many accused them of provoking with satanic content in his songs, especially 'Sympathy For The Devil'.
